"Running about Fortuna hustling, scheming, causing trouble, or maybe even living an honest life should be a great deal of fun," says Tarn Adams.

    Probably worth putting Tarn’s name in the title tbh. (Directed at PCGamer, not OP)

      From the title, I suspected it was Zach actually, because I know fewer people know that name and would be more likely to need the “dwarf fortress co-creator” label. Tarn definitely should have been named.

        I mean, it’s in the subtitle. “Dwarf Fortress” is definitely gonna have more name recognition than the developer himself.

    Looks a bit like Kenshi but without the weird. 😃

      More importantly, Kenshi with a color palette.

    cautiously optimistic that this game is good enough to waste hours on

    Does this new game look like it was written in 1974 too? I’m surprised the jerkasses actually agreed to update DF with 1980s graphics.

        You don’t need to be an artist to be a critic, but you should be something besides cultureless swine like the OP.

      Everyone knows the DF creators always said they’d add graphics when the game was closer to release.
